forestry Courses
To Be Taught
At A. & M. College
College Station, Texas, June 30
Basic training for professional
forester: wit) be offered in Texas
for the first time this year
through a new two-year forestry
program at Texas A. & M. Col-
lege.
Tht; coursc of study will be
opened to enrollees in September,
and witl provide two years train-
inn On completion of the pro-
gram. students will be able to
transfer without loss of credits to
one of the seven southern colleges
now operating accredited schools
for professional foresters. Students
wdl also be eligible to apply for
out-of-state aid to defray costs of
tuition and transportation to
these forestry schools.
The program was established at
Texas A & M. College to answer
numbers of requests from forest
industries of the state. It will be
administered within the college's
department of range and forestry.
Dr. Vernon A. Young, head of
the department, declares there is
i strong demand for professional
foresters in Texas and through-
out the South, from government
and private industry.
"In Texas," he states, "we have
one of the fastest growing forest
areas of the nation." Rapid timber
growth, plus increased numbers
of privately operated tree farms,
and expansion of Texas forest
products industries all have com-
bined. he points out, to create
strong demand for professional
forester graduates.
At present Texas has the great-
est number of privately owned
tree farms of any state in the na-
tion. It has more than 10,500.000
acres of commercially valuable
pine-hardwood forests. Value of
forest industries and products is
more than S530.000.000 and more
than 50.000 Texans now work in
forest industries.
Despite the value of forest pro-

special
hill-flatteners!
US?
Sec that fine fat mountain yonder?
You can iron it out, Hat as a Rounder
. . . and easy as whistling!
Just point one of Chevrolet's special
hiH-flatteners at it (either the 162-h.p.
"Turbo-Fire V8" or the 180-h.p. "Super
Turbo-Fire"*) . . . and pull the trigger!
Barr-r-r-r-o-o-O-O-OOM! Mister, you
got you a fiat mountain!
... At ieast it /ee/s fiat. For here are
engines that sing as sweetly as a dynamo
. . . built to pour out a torrent of pure,
vibrationless power. Big-bore V8's with
the shortest stroke in the industry.
So most of the time they loaf. Even at
the speed limit they just dream along,
purring out a fraction of their strength.
An engineer can understand why they
are so hyper-efticient. But you don't have
to be an engineer to know that these are
the sweetest running V8's you ever
piloted. Just come in and try one out!
